Microarray identifies ADAM family members as key responders to TGF-beta1 in alveolar epithelial cells.

abstract：BACKGROUND:We have recently reported that protein phosphate 2A (PP2A) inactivation resulted in increased phosphorylation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) c-Jun N-terminal kinase 1 (JNK1) and glucocorticoid receptors (GR) at Ser(226), thereby reducing GR nuclear translocation and causing corticosteroid ins...
